Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Union Springs, AL.

Short Term drug rehab is a term used to mean substance abuse rehab that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation program. Because treatment is not long, it is a great financial option and for people who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab programs in Union Springs have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term substance abuse rehab program is that clients may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among people who only receive short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation program have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
